Football Club Villefranche-Beaujolais is a French association football club founded in 1927. They are based in Villefranche-sur-Saône, Rhône-Alpes and are currently playing in the Championnat de France Amateur Group C, the fourth tier in the French football league system. They play at the Stade Armand Chouffet in nearby Villefranche-sur-Saône.

Football Club Villefranche-Beaujolais was formed in 1927. The club is notable for their successes achieved in the 1980s and early 1990s before falling into the lower divisions where they currently reside. For the 2007–2008 season, club president Jean Gachon stepped down from the position. Gachon was instrumental in helping Villefranche get to the Championnat National in the 1990s. He was succeeded by Christian Du Verne and Fabien Raty, who got the club to the Championnat de France Amateurs. The current president is Philippe Terrier.

As of November 2009.
